HOUSTON, Texas, Aug. 10, 2015 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Center of Reproductive Medicine today announced Dr. John R. Crochet, Jr., has been named as a “Rising Star” – an honor bestowed to only 2.5 percent of physicians in Texas. Rising Stars are an elite subset of Super Doctors, an already distinguished listing of top doctors, all of whom are featured in the July 2015 issue of Texas Monthly (see Dr. Crochet’s listing on page S-13, http://bit.ly/1K63AN1).

Super Doctors is a listing of outstanding physicians from more than 40 medical specialties who have attained a high degree of peer recognition and professional achievement. In selecting physicians for Super Doctors, a rigorous multi-step process is employed and includes nominations, independent research, and a blue ribbon panel review.

“It is incredibly humbling to be recognized by my peers with this prestigious award. This designation really highlights that our clinic is committed to a personalized, patient-centered approach to assisting couples on their journey to start or expand a family,” says Dr. Crochet.

Dr. Crochet trained in reproductive endocrinology and infertility at Duke University after completing residency at the University of Texas-Southwestern and medical school at University of Texas Medical Branch. He joins his colleagues at Center of Reproductive Medicine, Dr. Vicki Schnell and Dr. Jerry Sims, who have also been honored as Super Doctors.
